phono cable for VPI SSm

Clear day Audio makes unbelievable silver interconnects as well as speaker cables. You can find him on Audiogon. The cables are a steal and Paul is a great guy. He even lends them out without even a deposit. You don't want it, just send it back. No money has been spent, only the cost for priority mail.

I use Morrow PH6 Grand Reference cable on my Super Scoutmaster Reference rimdrive with excellent results.

Anyone can tell me if I need a dedicated phonocable (with a ground wire) or can I use a regular IC whereas my setup include the BMC MCCI phonostage to which you should not connect a ground wire. Anything to do with the need of the cable to work with low signal such as the output signal of a TT ? Is there a requirement for a shielded cable with low output signal ?

You can run any shielded cable but you may need to run a separate ground wire from the TT to the phono stage or you may produce a hum/buzz.

If you use balanced cable it is DEAD quiet...even with volume control up and an ear against the speaker.
